Great tiny apple 
Consequence of branches untrimmed 
Will anyone bother to learn 
That you are
Defiantly delicious?

Yet even though it hurt me
You took it away
Now I am left alone while
You live without consequence

of one so shy .. the other bold
an affair that started in the rain
was love a consequence or pain?

Cry of a Successful Man

With love comes consequence
With hope comes failure
With triumph comes fear
With peace comes worry
With riches comes pain
With poverty comes envy

A bug crawls my floor
              Going about it’s business 
                  I stamp out his life

Rope Is a Loose Noose

The noose is loose
by our choice we choose
consequence suffocating
failure of our inner relating

We hang in the balance of our own rope.......

Premium Member I'll drink to that

Think twice and drink responsibly.
All choices lead down a certain path.
Be prepared for their consequences.

A Gentle Prod

When athletics have no consequence,
The long jump and high jump make no sense,
You can still leap ten feet,
Even hurdle a street,
If you lean on an electric fence.
Form: Limerick

A Question of Synergy

Have I simply risen 
up to meet your
falling expectations?
Or, are we so matched
(as we believe) 
that love's the merest consequence
of our sweetest of summations?

Premium Member Collateral Damage

A babbling tongue,
Is like a weapon of mass destruction;
It indiscriminately destroys,
And disables, with harsh words,
Those targets, who to it,
Are of no consequence.

The Consequence

i am a bird
trapped in the cage that i built
captured by the grief inside
seized by my own greed
ruling my own little world
unable to escape
for my sins were too heavy

UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCE

bobbing in blue waves...
oyster fishermen snatch forth
...starfish limbs lobbed off

unintended consequence 
creating newborn nation

Premium Member A Moment

A chance meeting
a mere coincidence
one look 
in a magical moment
where one sees and feels
a depth of emotion
to the other it was
a fleeting moment 
with no consequence.

No Whiskey Lover

Your love is thin
  it has no flesh
its a pretty face
  with no consequence,

so I tell myself
  go without the water
by summer the malt 
  will be in order
your love is thin.

Consequence

An event horizon,
Mysteries of the sun,
Love is the foundation,
Look at what we've done,
Ending our beginning,
A generation of greed,
Be careful what you wish for,
Sower of the seed.

Often,
 one who can

More often,
one who can’t 
… will

Reluctance

Arrogance

—and the world to suffer their consequence

Remembering Plato

The consequence of discovery
is freedom
The circumstance of freedom
is leisure
The provenance of leisure
is vision
The assonance of vision
— is discovery

Premium Member Consequences

happiness
        or heartbreak
two sides
   of the penny
of life,
the irony
     of chance
smiling
or
raining
upon our parade,
day
by
day
consequence
comes into 
              ..p!ay..
Form: Verse

Confused

Each day I do my best to see
What's meant to be the best for me
Instead I find what's always wrong
It seems to make my days so long
I do what I consider best
Still my consequence  never seems to rest
